Screened Cable

[Guest scottygio]

i've recently ran in screened cable for an alarm system. To stop the induction where do the screens get connected to back at the panel? I'm installing a melcom st 6100.

thanks in advance

Connect the shield at the panel end only.

Connect them to earth.

Connect all screens to a suitable earthed point within the panel only.

Also, unless you really really have to fit it, swerve the Melcom. Kind of daft using screened cables then connecting them all to a rather poor panel.

Look for a Texecom Veritas for a decent user friendly DIY panel.

thanks guys for the advice. I'll connect all the screens to earth, i've already bought the melcom so i'll be sticking with that,
